Awful Awful Million $'s of Awful

Rating: 1/10 (15 July 2013)

I cant say how disappointed I felt as I sat there watching 'Pacific Rim' - my soul was quite literally sucked out of me as the movie clunked along. My God - seriously I'm not sure how much longer I can take these movies! Its the same every year - trailers start at the turn of the year teasing us with snippets and glimpses of the Summer Blockbusters that are heading our way, we all get excited and wait patiently for them to crash land and how they crash. 'Pacific Rim' is another Big Budget Blockbuster that fails in every area - even if you are a geek fan boy for Robots fighting Monsters i'm sure even you will walk out of the darkness with a sense of being let down. I cant even write a proper review for this one as my motivation has been knocked so badly I feel I may pass out if I start thinking about this movie for too long! Awful script, awful acting, awful characters. With all the skills involved with this movie was this the best we could get? Its B-Movie central all over again. Maybe thats how we should view these summer movies - not as B for Blockbuster but B for the old fashioned, leave brain at the door, turn out the light (inside & out) and let the B-Movies begin - well done Hollywood you have transformed (not pun intended) and created the B-Movie!! The last 2 years of Summer Blockbusters has made me look at the justification of these films - I conclude that we could actual survive without them and instead of using these mega budgets on mega let downs - just give the cash to some charity that needs it - surely that will give us all something to remember unlike 'Pacific Rim'...........
